The method of attachment of a kind of C/C composite and copper or copper alloy
Technical field
The present invention relates to the method for attachment of a kind of C/C composite and copper or copper alloy, belong to the dissimilar materials connection area.
Background technology
Carbon fiber reinforced carbon matrix composite (C/C) has low-density, low-expansion coefficient, high heat conductance, anti-ablation, anti-thermal shock and thermal fatigue resistance and excellent high-temperature mechanical property, is applied in the ITER nuclear fusion test plant in the face of plasma first wall material.The first wall material require bears high heat load and ion bombardment, and the C/C composite need connect to form cooling system with heat sink CuCrZr alloy.Therefore, C/C composite and CuCrZr jointing require to have high strength, high heat conductance and high thermal shock stability.Yet, there is significant physical chemistry attribute difference between the two, metallurgical compatibility is poor, and traditional melting connects very difficulty.Soldering is one of the most effective dissimilar materials method of attachment, but bigger thermal expansion coefficient difference (the Δ α ≈ 16 * 10 of both existence
-6/ k), the cooling procedure center tap produces bigger residual stress with the severe exacerbation joint performance.Therefore, select for use the fine copper of high heat conduction, low yield strength to alleviate the joint thermal stress usually as the intermediate layer.Its key technology that is connected of C/C composite and CuCrZr alloy is being connected of C/C composite and copper intermediate layer.The money base active solder can be realized pottery and being connected of alloy, but silver can become cadmium under neutron irradiation, so silver-containing solder can not be applied to nuclear fusion device as facing the plasma parts.
At present, C/C composite and the copper method of attachment reported mainly contain: the reactive metal casting of Austrian Plansee SE technique center exploitation, adopt laser roughening to handle to the C/C surface in advance, then by CVD or PVD deposition techniques one deck active element Ti [F.Rainer, et al.Patent EP 0663670.1995] or Ti+Si[B Schedler, et al.Physica Scripta, 2007, T128:200-203], the fine copper extruding is cast in the C/C surface realize that C/C is connected with the tight of Cu being higher than under copper melting temperature (1100 ℃), the vacuum condition.Strength of joint 53.7~the 73.4MPa of this method preparation, but the active coating preparation method is too complicated and equipment is had relatively high expectations.Italy announces that a C/C process for modifying surface is used for the [F.Rainer that is connected of C/C and fine copper, et al, patent EP 0663670,1995], group vib Cr, Mo, W element powders are coated in the C/C surface and heat-treat, generate carbide lamella by solid-state reaction, then fine copper cast in C/C surface after the modification and form being connected of C/C and Cu, adopt then electron beam welding or etc. static pressure connection Cu and CuCrZr.This technology prepares strength of joint 33MPa, but C/C surface modification heat treatment temperature too high (>1300 ℃), and cost is higher, complex process.Adopt the CuGeNi solder brazing to connect C/C and Cu [M.Salvo, et al.Journal ofNuclear materials.2008,374:69-74], strength of joint 34MPa, but the C/C surface needs to have above-mentioned shortcoming equally through the modification of chromium high-temperature heat treatment.Adopt the TiCuNi amorphous brazing filler metal to connect C/C and Cu[P.Appendino, et al.Fusion Engineering and Design, 2003,66-68:225-229], strength of joint is 24MPa only.Tan Mo wait by force the people adopt active casting connect C/C composite and copper [Tan Moqiang, etc. weld journal, 2006,27 (6): 61-66].People such as Xie Fengchun adopt TiZrCuNi solder brazing graphite and copper [Xie Fengchun, Deng. welding journal, 2008,29:73-76], compound can not effectively be alleviated the joint thermal stress between the hard brittle metal that weld seam generates, and strength of joint is low and far can not satisfy the requirement of thermal fatigue property.
In sum, mainly there is following problem in the C/C composite with the copper method of attachment at present: 1. adopting active casting is that the CC/Cu strength of joint that active element prepares is compared higher with Ti+Si, but CVD or PVD method complex process are adopted in the active coating preparation, equipment is had relatively high expectations, and production cost is higher; 2. the CC/Cu strength of joint for preparing after adopting the group vib metallic element to the C/C surface modification is lower, heat treatment temperature too high (>1300 ℃), and complex process, production cost is higher; 3. adopt the titanium based solder soldering to connect C/C and copper, strength of joint is low, and the fragile metal compound that weld seam generates can't be alleviated joint stress and poor heat conductivity, and thermal shock resistance is poor.At present the domestic C/C composite is connected with copper rarely have report, be badly in need of the exploitation preparation and have the interconnection technique of high strength, high thermal shock stability C/C composite and copper alloy.
